Chameleon

The Chameleon is a very notorious enemy found throughout the game. They can turn invisible and only turn visible when attacking. However, they are not entirely invisible, they are only faded to try to fit in with the background to appear invisible, but players with good eyes should be able to see them - also their shadow gives away their location. Sometimes, their eyes will be fully visible.

Like Crocodiles, they possess no weapons and use a melee attack - in this case, their tongue. Unlike Crocodiles, their tongue has range, which can strike you from a distance (they can go as long as from the bottom of a dome to the ledge in Space Station Meer), and the tongue cannot be evaded. Assuming that the Neutron Gun isn't being used, Plasma Blasters work well against them, since the lingering energy light will indicate their location for a split second.

They are extremely frustrating to face when confronted by more than one, as the Fur Fighter will not automatically aim towards them unless they are visible. While they are invisible, they will roll away if your attack hits them or if a flurry of bullets are being fired at them, making it difficult to detain them in one spot. The Chameleon's only vulnerable time is when they are preparing to cast their attack (indicated by the said Chameleon turning visible and readying their tongue). While in that phase, they are not able to roll away from your attack, and the Fur Fighter will automatically aim at them if they are in range (due to them turning visible).
